Devinda wants people to hear only what that big mouth general Fonseka, shouts after his nightmares about defeating the LTTE.

Don’t you worry soon, such people will commit suicide. Adolf Hitler also had to commit suicide. He had no concern for the lives of neither civilians nor soldiers.

Devinda does not want the citizens to know how the soldiers are getting “slashed” in the North !!! We all know the truth. My friend, banning the media will not help in this civilised and technological age !!

AI is a farce, their biggest fear is for media in Sri Lanka not its people. They dont care about us, where are the statements deouncing suicide bombings etc etc, no they only print ‘we ask both sides blah blah’ when blind freddy can see that the terrorists are doing.

AI needs to open its eyes and enter the real world instead of issuing Bull$$$t statements from their heated offices in New York.

D.Fernando,

What you means by “our country”.

We Sri Lankan Tamils have 100% Sri Lankan blood, can you claim that?

Freedom of speech is not absolute. you cannot cry “FIRE” in a crowded theater. When media freedom adversely affectes public safety and costs the Lives of our citizens then the line must be drawn there.

If journalists are being put in harms way by their actions then perhaps they should consider very carefully the words they publish. We are in a new age of warfare where battles are no longer fought in the physical realm. The internet has been proven to be key in the psychological batte so please excuse me if I fail to care that a few media outlets becomes targets themselves. We lose soldeirs everyday, brave men and women charged with the resposibility of defending our country, journalists who fear for their lives when they print anti-government material should consider less hazardous occupations… or at the very least consider less hazarous types of journalism…perhaps sports writing might be the job for you?
